Hotel Splendido
Enzyme writes, "what about awful hotels, B&Bs, or friends' houses where you've had no choice but to stay the night?"
What, the place in Oxford that had the mattresses encased in plastic (crinkly noises all night), the place in Blackpool where the night manager would drum to the music on his ipod on the corridor walls as he did his rounds, or the place in Lancaster where the two single beds(!) collapsed through metal fatigue?
Add your crappy hotel experiences to our list.

West London -- worse than the roughest parts of Asia
We stayed a Hotel in West London, booked through laterooms.com. For ONLY 20 quid more, we could have been in the Novotel, but we didn't want to be too extravagant. Instead, we had a room where the curtains were 10 inches too short, the pillow had pubes on, the bathroom was 30% yellow, 70% mould.
Oh, and the price very reasonably included breakfast. A bowl of Tesco Value Cornflakes and an egg. But not actually together, thank God.
We were planning a trip to Vietnam so we joked the Hotel was a good way to get used to slumming it, but Vietnam was much nicer.
